Another integrity story, shame we couldnt do this in uni Smile

Code:

Pupils' grades at a Florida high school are being re-examined after one admitted hacking into a computer and changing them for $5 a time.

Two pupils have been suspended for 10 days following the incident at Western High School in Davie. No criminal charges have been filed.

It's not known how many records were changed, but one student has admitted to altering 20 grades or attendance records.
